The SEC Forum at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

I'd love to go to some games, if only The Box weren't 3+ hrs away. 

I can navigate the baseball games so much better than a day at Tiger Stadium.  

To put it in perspective, our next five SEC opponents include the #1, 5, 11, and 12 teams, plus A&M who was preseason #1 and still dangerous. 

I'd imagine most of the hopeful SEC teams are facing something similar. 

EDIT:  We get Tennessee and Arkansas at home.  Hopefully that's worth something.  

Oh yeah, baseball games are so much easier and more relaxing to attend.  Football games have become an absolute beating.

For some of us, in more ways than one 

UGA has been pretty good in baseball in various seasons, this year thus far is one of their better ones.  They were good last year too.

Has Georgia baseball ever made CWS? Bulldogs history in NCAA Tournament

How much has NIL intruded into college baseball?

I've not kept up with a lot of info about it, but I've seen enough in passing to know it's a thing.  One of our players this year is donating some sum to some charity for every HR he hits, or something like that.  It's not like hundreds of thousands of dollars, but whatever it was, it didn't strike me as "My folks are well-off and I can just do this on my own" kind of money either.  Wherever I read about it, I believe the article even reported it as a noble use of NIL money.  

I assume if he's getting NIL, a lot of others are too.  

LSU baseball has quite a fan base.  I wonder how much sense NIL makes for a lot of other programs that don't generate a profit and has little fan support.  

In general, all of the "top" baseball schools are pretty heavily engaged in baseball NIL. You're not going to win the NC without having a strong NIL program in baseball, from now on.

Texas was lagging behind under David Pierce, he wasn't very good at using it, and in addition to that, a lot of Texas' money was also focused on football.  Schlossnagle on the other hand was excellent at using it, he built a fantastic roster at A&M using a lot of NIL funding, and one of his conditions to coming to UT, was that the Horns would do a better job of focusing on it for baseball.  So far we've seen definite, direct improvement in the roster as a result of that focus.
